Summary "In my senior year of college, some like-minded men and I went on a tour of the Southeast United States during our spring break. We visited several institutions in order to teach audiences how men can help sexual assault survivors who disclose victimization to them - a message in service of a broader mission to reduce the troubling rates of sexual violence on our campus and elsewhere. Our first stop was a university in the Atlanta area where we met with some of the school's faculty and staff"-- Provided by publisher.
